“…We also used three alternative outcome variables: job satisfaction, satisfaction with social relations and depression score. 7 Job satisfaction is directly related to an individual's income (Hajdu and Hajdu, 2014;Skalli et al, 2008;Sousa-Poza and Sousa-Poza, 2000), and it is also correlated with life satisfac-7 Respondents' job satisfaction and satisfaction with social relations were measured on a scale of 0-10, similar to life satisfaction. A depression score was created on the basis of four questions.…”

In this paper, we examine the association between intra-household income distribution and subjective well-being. Specifically, we analyse how satisfaction differs according to whether or not an individual's own income is higher than his/ her partner's. The analysis is based on the 2015 wave of the Household Budget and Living Conditions Survey, conducted by the Hungarian Central Statistical Office. Our primary sample consists of mixed-gender couple households in which both the woman and the man have income from employment. Our results show that men whose partners earn more than they themselves do are significantly less satisfied than are men who earn more than their partners. Similarly, women who earn more than their partners are significantly less satisfied than are women who earn less. This satisfaction disadvantage is due not only to the fact that a higher female income share may be an indicator of poorer household financial status; it may also be related to the health status and labour-market opportunities of partners (especially men), as these aspects are controlled for by several variables. We interpret the results as an impact of the social norm that "the man should be the main breadwinner in the household". We also show that the estimated coefficients are higher for the less-educated than for the higher-educated. Since the

“…Besides a short analysis, a recent study is highlighted here giving a good example on how these issues may be investigated and providing some interesting results. A recent work by Hajdu and Hajdu presents a concise study on work satisfaction and its components on a European sample using the fifth wave (run in 2010) of the ESS (Hajdu & Hajdu, 2014). The sample size in Hungary in this wave was 521 and the country is ranked in the mid-range for work related satisfaction with the average of 7.21 on a 10 level scale.…”

Intersections. EEJSP 2(1): 74-97. DOI: 10.17356/ieejsp.v2i1.187 http://intersections.tk.mta.hu AbstractThe research and policy impacts of subjective well-being (SWB) have gained more emphasis in the last decade as international agencies became aware of its importance. Governments have realised that besides the improvements of the economy, the overall life satisfaction of citizens are influenced by multiple other factors. An important part of SWB is work related well-being -often referred to simply as work satisfaction. The nature of work has changed a lot in the recent decades due to immense technological development, more people are behind desks than ever and in general the structure and policies of huge companies have evolved as well. Simply put: life has changed substantially, especially for white-collar workers. The way how people perceive work has also changed, hence the structure of work satisfaction is also different. This paper aims to give an overview on results in this domain and to highlight some possible directions in future research. First the paper gives an overview on SWB and the related research methodologies. Then some current international surveys are briefly described that may be used for SWB related research and finally recent results on work related well-being are shown and some research questions are presented.
